Bouncing Cats is the story of one man's attempt to create a better life for the children of Uganda using the unlikely tool of hip-hop with a focus on b-boy culture and breakdance. Abraham "Abramz" Tekya, a Ugandan b-boy and an AIDS orphan creates a free workshop teaching youth b-boy culture to 300 disenfranchised kids living in precarious conditions in Kampala in 2006, and in Gulu in North Uganda. Uganda is often referred to as one of the worst places on earth to be a child.

Le documentaire a suivi le groupe de rap durant un an (en 1998) depuis les répétitions au studio Pee Wee à Aubervilliers, du début de leur tournée à La Réunion, en passant par Lorient, Nantes, Lyon, Bordeaux, Nancy, jusqu'au Zénith de Paris. Le documentaire revient également sur les problèmes de Joeystarr avec la justice, sur la vie au sein du groupe, sur les problèmes avec les médias, ... Joeystarr et Kool Shen, en interviews croisées et intimes, reviennent sur les faits marquants de toute cette aventure. Ils parlent de leurs rapports communs, de leur "vie de couple", de l'émergence de leurs collectifs, B.O.S.S. (début de l'émission Skyboss sur Skyrock) et IV My People, du possible futur ou bien de la fin d'NTM, .

Ce documentaire ouvre à nouveau les enquêtes sur les meurtres des superstars du rap, Biggie Smalls (The Notorious B.I.G.) et Tupac Shakur. Ces deux rappeurs, d'abord amis, sont devenus à cause de leurs succès respectifs des ennemis mortels. La thèse officielle de leurs assassinats est celle de la guerre du rap. Nick Broomfield offre la parole aux témoins et aux proches que la police n'a pas entendus. Les dessous de ces enquêtes bâclées révèlent la corruption des autorités, le pouvoir du producteur Suge, le rôle du FBI, les rumeurs selon lesquelles Notorious Big aurait commandité le meurtre de Tupac.

Le documentaire présente la vie de Tupac Amaru Shakur du point de vue du rappeur lui-même. Narrateur et protagoniste du film, il raconte sa vie, ses actions et son art avec ses propres mots. Un peu différent du DVD "Thug Angel", mais beaucoup plus apprécié.

The Royal Winnipeg Ballet's Summer School Program is the first step to beginning a career as a professional ballet dancer. But that doesn't mean that it's easy. 9 young girls come from all over the world to enter the program, knowing that if they don't get in by a certain age, it will be far too late to become a ballerina. A dancer can try her hardest but not make it into the next stage just based on her physical musculature. Those that do make it face a difficult decision - spend their childhood and teen years away from their families and focusing on the daily strains of ballet training, or live as a normal teenager.
